All you have to do is build a team based on rules set by an icon. And to help you on your way, I've got a tip to help you build your team. Make sure you keep an eye on fixtures. Who are the players up against next? Sometimes it's not about form. |
| 0:21.7 | Like there are some players that, for whatever reason, always play well against certain teams. |
| 0:27.0 | To do your research. To get involved in the EPL Fantasy Challenge, all you've got to do is grab |

| 1:48.5 | Good morning. You know, this is the first time I ever went to a Jets football game and wore a bag on my head. Unbelievable. I was at the game. Brutal. I feel like I'm Simon calling in every week to fire Aaron, but I'm calling it a fire Aaron instead of Boone. Aaron has success. I don't think this is the same. How does that bag work? Does it get hot in there? No, it's actually not bad. You know, I thought it was going to be like super annoying. You kind of get used to it. It's not that bad, actually. Why put yourself through that, though, a grown man like just don't go to the game it's better to not go than don't have to wear a bag on your head so this is the problem it was a birthday gift my wife got it |
